Sherwood hockey sticks - One slapshot, & the blade almost decapitates the goalie.

Sherwood makes great sticks. Try not to take so much ice when you take a slapshot if you don't want your WOOD blade to break.

pfft... Maybe the 2 that I've owned happened to be defective. I've had no problems with other wooden sticks.

Which Sher-wood sticks did you have? [/b][/quote]
I can't remember... I bought a Canadien last year that's still kicking it. But that Sherwood that I had broke during a game of shinny. I went back to Crappy Tire with my gear on & demanded a new one. The customer service clerk complied, but made it clear that hockey sticks aren't invincible, and that I should not take so much ice with me (a-la your comment). I sort of knew that I was partly to blame, but really, my shot isn't too bad, so I defended myself.
I got the new stick, but the game was over before I got back.
The next day, I was shooting pucks with a buddy (practising tips), and the new stick broke with barely any splintering. This time, I hadn't really hit the ice at all.
Alas, I knew that it was karma for (borderline) lying about the first stick.
Either way, I've been using Canadien ever since.
And please, nobody inform me if Canadien & Sherwood are the same company. What I don't know, can't hurt me.
Oh yeah, I also boycott the YMCA. Their rates are ridiculous.
